2 years is a big change...something like 1k++ difference....

[Oceanklassik]

If can predict like tat, then u help me la... Say nw I start to save for a ROLEX Sub(date) which is costing around $7k at current. I give myself 2yrs to buy one. How much will I hv to pay for one 2yrs later?

[Oceanklassik]

Like tat oso bo bian rite ? For example, 3yrs ago, I oni earn like $2k/mth. How to even buy a $5k watch? Nw 3yrs later, earn mre then can start hunting mah... If I'd knwn, 10yrs ago I go bang on pam n buy dozens, now i chio bb oledi lo

3 years ago, 16710 only cost around S$4.8k. Now someone asking $10.5k for a 16710 with 3186 movement....

If you save 3 years for around $5k, it means you will have to save another 3 years for your watch.... ha ha ha

Correct but we mus understand tat no all here earns te same. Sme earn alot; sme dun, while sme earn alot but commitment oso alot. So left wif no choice but really hv to save up very long then can afford. Sme lagi worse; earn little oso wan to buy. Borrow here n thre jus to buy a ROLEX .

In 3 years, I think Rolex has already increase at least 3 times in their list price....

Three years is a long time, I really admire your patience and perseverance

For me, I used abt 3 yrs time to convince her then she approved my 1st SD..
